ABSTRACT

This talk addresses an old and fundamental problem, i.e., how a communication receiver processes its received signal for information detection. I will introduce our research result on redesigning the communication receiver. Compared to the well-known receiver design with coherent detection, our newly designed receiver processes the received signal using joint coherent and non-coherent detection, which gives notable improvement in terms of both data rate and symbol error detection performance. This somewhat surprising result may lead to many new research opportunities by making use of the new receiver design in the current and future communication systems.
